Namco Bandai and Nintendo have announced that Tekken 3D Prime Edition for the 3DS will hit store shelves in North America on Feb. 14, 2012. Europe will get the game on Feb. 17. This comes a day after the Japan release date.

Pre-patch, if you achieved a hard flying knockdown from a jumping S after a launcher, the camera would stay on your opponent only. The player not shown would be able to capitalize on this with a mixup.
